    Arum doesn't want to share the profits with GBP. So by bringing in investors(instead of partnering with GBP), Arum can have a deal that will give him more share of the profit. While the investors might not get as much as GBP, the financial outcome will be more than the money they put in the fight.

    Arum gets his money, investors get their money, Pac and Floyd get their money, and GBP doesn't get a penny. You guys and I might not like Arum, but he is a smart businessman.

      This makes no sense. Why wouldn't investors get as much as GBP?

        GBP is a major player in boxing and have a say on the share. If this investors doesn't agree with Arum, then Arum can look for other investors that will bite into it. The investors might not get as much as GBP but the return they will get is gonna be more than they expected. And remember, its Greedy Arum.

            Ok let me ask you again. Why would investors make less than GBP? Do you understand what an "investor" is?

                I already answered your question. If you don't like that answer, then not my problem.

                    It doesn't "need" investors but Arum knows a super fight like this will attract the attention of a lot of wealthy people so he's basically making business with the highest bidder. Remember those south african people who wanted to host the fight and were ready to pay $100 million? And those investors from Singapore? Jerry Jones? Arum is gonna make business with whoever brings the most money to the table.

                      You didn't answer anything. An investor would take as much if not more than Bob Arum. Unless they're investing little, then why would they be needed? If they're willing to put up 75m that means they expect to recoup that and make a profit. So what are you talking about? Simple common sense ought to tell you that for that reason alone, it's BS. There are actually a bunch of reasons why but if you can't even comprehend basic business, there is no use for going there with you.

                      That wasn't directed to you. I'm merely laughing at the idea of Joe Jackson *****g this fight together.
